The discovery of machine-made mesons by Lattes and Gardner was announced in February, 1948. Lattes (left) and E. Gardner with the emulsion positioning apparatus for the 184 inch meson experiments taken March 8, 1948. Cesare Mansueto Giulio Lattes (July 11, 1924 - March 8, 2005) was a Brazilian experimental physicist. Milton Eugene Gardner (February 10, 1901 - 1986) was an American physicist who worked on radar systems at the Radiation Laboratory in Massachusetts. In 1948, they were co-discovers of the pion, a composite subatomic particle made of a quark and an antiquark, using the 184 inch cyclotron at University of California, Berkeley.
